I must say I am really impressed with the honeybread theme cyanogen recently retweeted. I didn't think the amount of different things in honeybread was even possible by using the theme chooser app. Even launcher pro has themed items, and it isn't part of the stock rom.

After removing the stock music player and installing the honeycomb version my phone seems to be syncing my music to the cloud.

[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
How is it actually syncing? Everything I read says it still doesn't offer any actual streaming functionality just the options there that show it will work at some point. How/what is it actually reading from? (yes the cloud, I know, but it has to be connected to your music files) I only ask because it puts the option in Accounts & Sync and has options in the app, but that doesn't mean it is actually syncing real files...
[EVO 4G General] WhiteWidows:
Honestly im unsure what it doing. But its never done this before on 2.3.2 when i removed and placed honeycomb music on them. Im assuming its taking my music files on my sd and pushing them to the cloud but i have no clue.

Quick question: I'm having a weird issue with my Market where it doesn't successfully download updates to random apps, and my Clear Data button is always grayed out. I tried deleting Vending.apk with Root Explorer and reflashing the 2 month old GApps zip for GB after clearing both caches multiple times and still no luck. Is 2.2.11 the latest version of the Market or is there a newer one that I could try flashing?
[EVO 4G General] housry23:
There is a newer one. Version 2.3.4, I am not sure where to find it exactly, but I know I found it here on XDA.

[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
I've got two questions. When you have a theme installed that uses the T-Mobile theme engine and use Titanium Backup to backup an app that is currently themed, will it store the themed version of the app? Or is the theme applied in some way that doesn't modify the apk?

Another question I have is whether the new nightlies have fixed Titanium Backup batch-mode support. I stopped reading this thread around when the nightlies stopped coming for a few days, and during those days 100 more pages were made. So I'm sorry that this is kind of a lazy question.

[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Can anyone comment on battery life in nightly 11+?

I'm on nightly 6 and while my screen is off it seems like my battery won't drain at all...which is excellet. However, when I actually use my phone it drains too fast for my liking..

1 hour off the charger, 2 phone calls for a total of 7ish minutes and about 3 texts killed 16% of my battery...
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
You can enable the TV-on and TV-off animation in Settings->CyanogenMod Settings.

I've noticed since the gg builds, turning on the display will result in the button and backlight coming on, but no image on the LCD until you tap the screen.
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
On 12 (and everything since RC1 I think) I lose about 30% battery in 45 minutes, doing nothing, with nothing installed. "System" and "System Processes" take up constant 10-30% CPU time.
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
My icon never shows anything but full strength, regardless of where I am, even when I keep dropping the signal because it's so weak. Sense ROMs show me 0 to 1 bar, CM shows full bars always. To be honest, I haven't heard of anyone seeing a working 4G icon except you.

That's harsh~!

I always had great battery life on an CM rom up until the .37 kernel. I like the kernel.... but the slight performance upgrade wasn't worth the loss of battery life, at least for me.

I suggest checking out Tiamat kernel.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Is there a thread on it in the development section?
[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
So, LP stuttered quite a bit up until about RC1, then it was much smoother and usable. I think some of the problem is more with LP w/GB than CM or the kernel, but I'm not sure. LP runs fairly well with OnDemand or Conservative governors, but with anything else it is just too laggy to be usable :(. I have tried this with stock, savagedzen, and tiamat...

It would be nice to use smartass or the savagedzen governors, but I can't manage to do it for long :(. Anyone experience this?

Yes

[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
It has to be a GB thing. LP still runs sluggish relative to how smooth it is in 2.2 or older. The LP rewrite should be coming soon though, and that should fix up any issues. At least I hope so.
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
I suggest the Savaged Zen Kernel. Nothing out performs it in terms of benchmarks which is proven here:

http://home.comcast.net/~evoreviews/compiled.html

Its got a higher linpack score, less deviation and a higher framerate than Tiamat, and also higher quadrant scores.
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
Ive had Zero issues with LP lag. In fact it runs so fast i always uninstall ADW and use Launcher Pro now
[EVO 4G General] paranoid android85:
just try both;) i love savaged-zen kernel, but my evo performs better with tiamat. charts can say what they want, depends on the phone
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
stop being so...........paranoid:D:D:D
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
+1

I'm not knocking anyone at all... but I personally don't care about scores. I don't use linpack in everyday use... so when I have to use an app to know if one kernel is faster than the other... then the difference is extremely minimal.

I am more concerned with healthy balance of speed, performance and mainly battery life in everyday use. Stock kernel will almost not move at all if I never use my phone.. I have left it overnight and woke up with the exact same amount of battery. My concern is that when I actually start using it... it drains quickly.

I haven't messed with the built in "setcpu" because whenever I mess with things like that... my performance has always taken a hit somewhere.
[EVO 4G General] jessesse:
Without checking scores... Tiamat feels faster to me and that's really what matters.. but I'm on a launch day evo hardware 002 I think.. the battery seems pretty good to me too.. sorry no numbers to back it up... just try it out.. and report back. I swear I can feel a differance typing on the stock keyboard...

[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
I have yet to find a Kernel that can hang with the CM kernel in stability, performance, and battery life. Some of the undervolted kernels give every-so-slightly better battery life, but with an unacceptable sacrifice in performance and stability, in my opinion. I chased the "perfect kernel" for months and kept going in circles. Finally settled with CM kernel. I'm incredibly happy with it.

How much you use the phone will always be the biggest factor in your battery life, by miles and miles and miles. Then data use/rogue apps/wake lock issues, etc. Then signal strength. Then maybe kernel tweaks.

Just my opinion.
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
my only problem with the CM kernel is no SBC. If it had SBC id be set. If someone could figure out how to add it, then that would be awesome

Does anyone have the source code for the kernel itself? Id love to see if I or anyone else can add SBC to it
[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
This is a stupid question, but I haven't been able to google it and find an answer. Why is the T-Mobile Theme Engine called that? Did T-Mobile create it and release its source, or maybe cyanogen reverse engineered it?

Also, does using it modify your apks? For example, if I apply a skin that changes my news widget and then make a backup of that apk, will the backup have the theme applied to it?
[EVO 4G General] paranoid android85:
lol how many kernels have you chased? i just know of savaged-zen and tiamat that just popped up last week

Well back in the day (like, three months ago) there were more options, like Savage Kernel, MS's Kernel, Zendroid, Netarchy used to have an AOSP version, etc. Plus there's all the CFS, BFS, HAVS, SVS, No-Havs etc variations. There are dozens unique Kernels.

I chased kernels for a while, but I figure with CM7 in active development, it's best to stay on stock. Especially considering the devs will ignore bug reports here and in the reporting site if you are on a custom kernel. It's just another variable not worth chasing down.

The cool thing is, one can try whatever kernel one wants and stick with the one that's working best. For now, I choose stock (if and when I even go back to CM7 from CM6).

[EVO 4G General] vulcZ:
Been running the nightly from 2/25 (I think it's 7) and I just wanted to give some feedback :)

ROM performance is great overall. Phone feels snappy and stable. I only see 2 problems, and BTW this is on a fresh wipe and install. The first problem has to do with battery charging. Before, my battery charging speeds were very very consistent. When connected to my PC my phone would fully charge in 3-4 hours, and when plugged into the AC adapter (or my car charger) it would charge a lot faster, about twice as fast actually. Now, when plugged into my car, it charges in about 2 hours. Still very acceptable, but definitely slower than before. When plugged into my computer it'll take anywhere from 6-8 hours and it's very inconsistent. Sometimes I'll leave it plugged in, and after an hour it'll only charge 5%. I'm going off of the task bar battery icon (I have % enabled in CM7 options). So sometimes it charges EXTREMELY slow, but I think it might just be a problem with the OS reporting it wrong because then I could shut my phone off, and when I come back up it'll jump the battery up another 15-20% O_O. Weird issue.

The other problem is with 4G. I get a connection, and I get great speeds, but I noticed that if I'm on 4G, and I get an MMS message (or talk on the phone) 4G wont reconnect. I have to actually turn it off, and turn it back on. Also, if I have 4G on, and I connect to a WiFi network, neither of my connections work. If I disable 4G, WiFi still doesn't work. I have to actually disable 4G and then disable and re-enable WiFi in order to get my Wi-Fi working again.

Any one else run into either of these problems? They may have both been fixed already, but I just thought I'd offer feedback :)

Yet when testing in Fort Lauderdale, it worked fine.

Then suddenly, today we could all 4g tether again. So weird that Sprint would have 4g run fine on phones but not thethering on rooted roms....
